ACA Galleries

My favorite gallery in NYC!!! They always have the coolest exhibits! The openings are always a great time. Lots of nice people and the staff is so warm and knowledgeable! Definitely a place to check out if you’re in the neighborhood.

Agreed with Mo P, the workers here were all excelent, smiley, and quite helpful without that pretense felt at many Chelsea galleries.
The exhibit by James Chapin was haunting and beautiful, as well.
As part of the high quality 529 West 20^th St experience I’d definitely recommend checking this one out.

529 West 20^th Street, labeled the «Art Building» houses several little galleries and fine arts related businesses. Of all the floors though, my award goes to the 5^th floor, home of the A.C.A Gallery.
The people running this gallery always seem very welcoming (and we know there are many galleries that aren’t). I spent time at their current exhibit, «On the Edge» sketching and taking a couple photographs, and no one tried to hurry me along as I studied the ASTONISHING drawings by Edgar Jerins. The exhibit featured four unique artists who generally whip out works in drawing mediums… but A.C.A will rotate a variety of artists — next up is Grace Hartigan (from March 20^th-​May 3^rd, 2008).
Here’s some good stuff to know:
Hours: Tuesday-​Saturday, 10:30 — 6pm.
Summer Hours:
June 20 — August 18, Tuesday through Friday, 10:30 — 6pm.
The gallery will be closed from August 19 — September 4.

Have fun and hit up the WHOLE building while you’re there… each floor has one or more galleries!!!
